Welcome NOTLYKEME83 to our yeam. You made a great decision in reaching out to information and groups that can help you work with your diabetes to get it under control. What type of meds are you on? I am on Metformin EX 500 mg. twice a day. My numbers seems to be great lately. Glad to hear your meds are working for you. Don't foget to check out the nutrition tracker. I think it is one of the best aspects of SP. Again welcome! Becky

Hello Everyone, I am 25 years of age and have recently been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. Tomorrow will be two weeks so it is fairly fresh and it is still taken me some time to deal with. My mother is also diabetic and has been for over ten years now. I know I can survive this but this all just happened so fast and I am still in a depression stage. My numbers have been very good, so I assume my Med's are working for me. I have a lot of support form my family and a few friends try to make sure I eat right. But this all will take some time to get use to....
